Since last year, when it was discover that a self-published author had
stolen paragraphs from the works of authors Tammara Webber and Jamie McGuire,
it’s become a growing concern that some “authors” have been stealing the words
of other authors and passing it off as their own. Agent Rachelle
Gardner discussed what to do if you’re worried about this happening to you. She
also discusses piracy.

Writer’s Digest had a post on the five differences between professional
and amateur novelists.

Stina Lindenblatt @StinaLL writes Young Adult and
New Adult novels. In her spare time, she’s a photographer and can be found at
her blog/website. She is represented by Marisa Corvisiero, and
finds it weird talking about herself in third person. Her debut New Adult
contemporary romance TELL ME WHEN (Carina Press, HQN) is now available.
